Working with Alena gave us confidence from the very beginning that our wedding day was going to be everything we hoped for. She took the time to speak with us on the phone several ...
times and was always incredibly responsive to our questions via text and email. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our day and wanted to make sure everything was executed exactly as we envisioned. Communication was always strong and clear, and we truly felt that our requests were heard and understood.
On the day of the wedding, everything came together perfectly. The sound and music were excellent, and all of our song requests were accommodated. The sound levels were energetic enough to keep the party going without ever feeling overwhelming in the space. The MC announcements and transitions were seamless, which made the entire evening feel effortless.
The Crasherz played such a great variety of music and kept our guests on the dance floor all night. We had so many guests tell us afterward how much fun they had and how amazing the band was. The energy they brought to the wedding was incredible, and they were truly one of the highlights of the night.
Overall, we were extremely pleased with our experience working with The Crasherz for our wedding. Everything that was promised was delivered, the music and energy were exactly what we wanted, and the entire experience was incredibly positive. We would absolutely recommend The Crasherz to our friends!
If you are hiring a band, don't bother interviewing others because The Crasherz are the best! From initial planning through various check-ins, we were in sync about the vision for...
our Welcome Party, Wedding Ceremony and Reception, and they absolutely rocked it. Our guests marveled at how great they were!
I had the pleasure of using the Crasherz band for a few Jarc Motown concerts, and they were amazing! They were so great with the people we serve (adults with developmental disabili...
ties). They truly engage with the audience and are just wonderful.
Truly cannot recommend the Crasherz enough. We hired them for our Mackinac Island wedding and they exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, Alena was attentive to all o...
f our questions and needs, and made sure everything was exactly what we wanted. She was communicative throughout the entire process and flexible with any changes. Even with all of the extra logistics of an island wedding, the process with the Crasherz was completely seamless. We highly recommend them for any wedding or special event!
WOW! What an incredible night, celebrating our daughter's wedding. Alena and the Crasherz Band brought it! They played nonstop to a crowd of 260 guests! Beginning with the cere...
mony, then moving to the reception (7:30 pm) and playing nonstop until 1:30 am! Band first, then DJ! Talent and Energy! Absolutely what you would want at a wedding! Every time someone called, their first comment was always how amazing the band was, who they were, and how we heard about them. Each voice was powerful, distinct, and full of energy. Thank you, Alena K., and the Crasherz Band for helping us celebrate the most amazing nights for our family!
From the start of our booking and communication, Alena and her Crasherz team was GREAT! Same day responses, going above and beyond for our clients, and so much knowledge and backgr...

When my husband and I first got engaged, we knew that finding the right band would make or break our wedding reception. We could not be happier with The Crasherz, who had our guest...
s of all ages dancing and singing along all night. This band is so talented! We also had an untraditional order of events that they emceed with no problem.
We are speechless in trying to think about how to express our feelings about The Crasherz. We sent inquiries to many bands as we explored options for our wedding. The Crasherz set ...
the bar high immediately, as they were the only ones to respond to our cold inquiry with a personal phone call from Alena. The responsiveness and attention - matched with our immediate connection to and enthusiasm for their style (professionally and musically) - made The Crasherz a no brainer decision for us. For the months that lead into our wedding, we obsessively watched their videos. We told Alena and Sean from the very beginning that we were throwing a different kind of wedding: a day time tailgate party at the Big House. We also made clear we did not want a typical wedding band experience. They bought in right away and committed to our vision. Other bands / companies were not flexible or interested in even having a conversation outside of anything traditional. Sean curated the perfect flowing set list, from the songs we wanted The Crasherz to perform. Alena hosted the day with positive vibes and command of the room. They were open to wearing game day attire instead of usual wedding band dress. Our videographer told us they have never seen a bride and groom on the dance floor the entire time like we were. That is 100% thanks to The Crasherz — how could we miss a single second of them performing?! Our guests couldn’t get over our set list - it was personal and nostalgic and fun and different - and kept asking “where did you find this band???” The Crasherz proved to be more than just the live music vendor for our wedding; they were the party. They delivered above and beyond any expectation. We can’t recommend them enough. Thank you Alena and Sean and team for making this the best part of our wedding process and something we get to feel so good about forever.
I don't have enough good things to say about Alena and The Crasherz. I am very high maintenance when it comes to music and Alena and the band stayed with me the whole way. And bo...
y, did they deliver. Quotes from my wedding guests: "I feel like we're at a private concert", "this is the best band I have ever heard", "where did you find this band and can you please get me their info for...". I could go on, but you get the idea. The Crasherz absolutely crushed it AND I'm so happy with them and our wedding because of it! We danced until the wee hours and enjoyed every minute of it -- from age 2-86! Huge thank you to The Crasherz and hope to see you all again soon. PS, my wedding planner also said everyone in the band was a delight to work with! They make it all look fun and easy. Apparently they love their work!!
The Crasherz band is absolutely incredible. They brought the vibes all night long. Our guests literally never sat down. We hired them having never seen them at another wedding prio...
r, and they exceeded our expectations ten-fold. We couldn’t be more grateful for them and their excellence. 10/10 experience all around. HIGHLY recommend!

em again!
The Crasherz played my wedding at Planterra Conservatory last month and I couldn't recommend them more! Alena was so great to work with throughout the process - she was always resp...
onsive, on top of everything, and bright and positive. The band blew us and our guests away throughout the night, from cocktail hour through the first dances, and they ripped it for 3 hours straight after dinner. They can make do with any configuration/setup (they had to strip down to a 5-piece for us because of Planterra's decibel limit), and they play a wide variety of music, from oldies to modern-day hits, in nearly every genre. Can't wait to see them again at our friends' wedding next year.
Hands down best wedding band ever! They get everyone on the dance floor and keep you dancing all night long - we recommend them to anyone we know. Thanks Crasherz!!!
Alena and the band were absolutely incredible. They made our night so special and SO MUCH FUN! Everyone was remarking how great they were and the dance floor was packed all night l...
ong!
They were an amazing band at our wedding and kept the energy up the whole night!
Wow! Wow! Wow! I cannot say enough amazing things about the Crasherz! My son and daughter-in-law initially wanted a DJ for their wedding as they wanted the music to sound like the ...
real artist. I ensured them that I could find a band that would give them an amazing wedding and rock the house! I listened to bands for hours and just kept coming back to the Crasherz. They always sounded so good! Leading up to the wedding day, from the very first phone call, Alena was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was always very responsive, calm (even if I was not) and flexible. She truly listened to what we wanted in a wedding band, the type of music and how we wanted the night to flow. Everything was absolutely PERFECT! The dance floor was packed all night with multiple generations enjoying the song selection. All night long people were saying “Where did you find this band? They’re phenomenal!” The bride and groom loved them and were very happy to have an amazing band. I am so glad I hired the Crasherz for their wedding.
You want The Crasherz for your wedding, party, anniversary, birthday, whatever! Our daughter's wedding would not have been the success it was without The Crasherz. From the first...
meeting to the last, Alena will walk you through every step of the way. She was a phone call away throughout an entire year...true professional. Once you're ready to celebrate your event, get ready, because you and your guests will not sit for the rest of the night. These people are so talented and fun! We absolutely loved them and you will too. Your search is over!
THE MOST MEMORABLE BAND!!! The Crasherz band was hands down the BEST choice for music. When it came to details and personal touches, they did not miss a beat (literally). They have...
a large music selection list with every genre and are willing to work with you on anything. Their attitude is contagious and we are forever grateful for how memorable of a night they made for us! Our guest are still talking about how great the music was and asking for their name. Highly recommend working with their team to make your wedding a night to never forget!
The Crasherz were such a highlight of our wedding experience. We were going into it blind with never hearing them before live and we were so pleased. Alena kept us at ease during...
the planning process and her and Sean learned 3 new songs for our night that made it extra special. The band looked great, sounded great and we received so many compliments on them. The party was high energy the whole night from the oldies to new songs. We would highly recommend Alena, Sean and The Crasherz!
There is no better band for your wedding than the Crasherz. The entire night was seamless and the sound was incredible. We received dozens of compliments on how amazing the music w...
as and about the eclectic song collection. As musicians and song lovers ourselves, we could not have been happier with their work.
Wedding planning can be stressful, but Alena was a breath of fresh air throughout the whole process. She was easy to work with and very responsive to texts/emails. She even gave us dance lessons and taught us our first dance!
Without hesitation, if you want an awesome band for your wedding, hire the Crasherz then rock ‘n’ roll all night
THE BEST BAND! We are so beyond grateful for the CRASHEZ band. Alena was amazing to work with and kept everyone on the dance floor. People can't stop talking about how amazing they...
were at the wedding. If we could get married again we would 1000% hire the CRASHERZ band again!
CRASHERZ BAND— The ABSOLUTE BEST BAND we could have ever chosen for our daughter's wedding! Alena was so amazing from our very first conversation a year ago, until we departed the...
reception. She was so lovely to work with, so patient, so upbeat, so kind, so accommodating, so TALENTED and so FUN!!! CRASHERZ made the wedding reception such memorable event. The well curated play list by the bride/groom and CRASHERZ was loved by guests of all ages. It got to the point, that we were all hoping they would play a lousy song so we could take a break from non-stop dancing…but they just hit it out of the park, one after another, after another, after another, after another…..!!! As the mother of the bride from the east coast, hosting an elegant wedding event in an out of state location, not knowing anyone or able to rely on any trusted references from friends, every vendor was chosen carefully, but with our fingers crossed hoping for the best. Darrin Meetze, an event specialist, from Lorio Ross Events & Entertainment, thankfully referred us to CRASHERZ and, by far, CRASHERZ exceeded all of our expectations! Despite all of the lovely details that go into creating an amazing wedding, the band is critical, and I cannot imagine there is a better band in MI than the CRASHERZ! We could not recommend any higher!
Sean and Alena put on such an incredible party for us we can't stop thinking (and hearing) about how amazing they were. Whenever they were playing, the dance floor was completely p...
acked. Alena was incredibly responsive and just a text a way throughout the planning process and a dream to work with, we didn't worry about a thing they just took everything and ran to put on an incredible show with amazing musicians (and even got a 94 year old grandma to stick around until midnight so she didn't miss it!) We want to get married again just to hire the Crasherz again.
We had the extreme pleasure of hosting this wonderful band @ the Bay Harbor Yacht Club for NYE 2022, and WHAT A TIME WAS HAD!! Our members LOVED everything about The Crasherz! Memb...
ers partied and danced allll night!! If you are looking for a high energy group, that can really read a room, look no further! The Crasherz are TOP NOTCH!!
Alena and Sean led an amazing show by the Crasherz for our wedding in Lake Forest, IL at the Deer Path Inn. Starting 8+ months before, Elena was very helpful during planning and qu...
ick to answer any questions we had throughout the process. During the reception and many days/weeks after our wedding, we had countless guests tell us how incredible the band was - the dance floor was packed the entire time! Even after their planned last song of the evening, they played an extra song to close it down, as guests were chanting and asking for, "one more song".
The Crasherz played an incredible show and were spot on with the setlist and overall vibe that we wanted to capture at our black tie wedding - classy, yet fun and ready to bring the energy. Highly recommend them as a wedding or event band!
Alena and her team at The Crasherz Band were not only amazing in performing at our wedding, but so organized in all of the preparation. Guests cannot stop talking about "the band"...
and how awesome they were. In fact we have passed their name to many people after the wedding because they want to consider them for their own events! If this doesn't say enough about their talent.....our first dance was to an Ed Sheeran song and one of my friends literally said "wait, I had no idea Ed Sheeran was showing up to sing" lol. Perfect choice of songs, people were dancing and enjoying themselves all evening. I especially loved the options that were provided in terms of types of music for cocktail reception, dinner and then full on dance party. They do it all and the emceeing was SUPERB!
My wife and I lucked out and found our way to The Crasherz and we couldn't be happier that we did. They were a huge reason our wedding night was the wedding of our dreams. First of...
f, the band is fantastic. They sound wonderful, can play all the hits, but most of all, they bring the ENERGY. True professionals in every sense of the word.
Alena and her approach leading up to the wedding day are what separates this band from the rest. She made us feel comfortable and confident leading up to the wedding. She listens to what the client wants and then does everything in her power to make that come to life. Every time we spoke to her I left the call thinking, "Wow! I can't wait to get this party started." On the wedding night, Sean overheard in a toast that I liked to sing "Use Somebody" by Kings of Leon. Next thing you know he and I are ending the night belting it out to our guests. Just great people who know how to make a night truly special.
The band showed flexibility in traveling from Detroit to Indianapolis for our wedding and was incredibly easy to work with in planning logistics. I hope they're able to come back to Indy so we can see them again!
THE CRASHERS MADE OUR WEDDING! I cannot even begin to describe how happy we are with the the Crasherz Band. My husband and I looked far and wide for a great wedding band and we cou...
ldn't be happier that we chose the Crasherz. They were not only absolutely fantastic on our wedding night, but Alena was so helpful and responsive leading up to the big event. The energy was truly electric and the Crasherz gave us the performance that we were hoping for. Alena was also the best MC and kept everything organized and moving. Everyone was on the dance floor all night and we would 100% recommend them! We cannot stop watching our videos and listening to our wedding songs.
I hired Alena and her band for my wedding, and they were exceptionally easy to work work. She responded to calls, texts, emails promptly. They were very flexible for all of our req...
uests and MC'd the night flawlessly. All in all, The CrasherZ were a trusted partner for a very special event. They were my favorite vendor to work with and I would highly recommend them.
For anyone thinking about utilizing the Crasherz, think no more. We had the Crasherz at our wedding on July 23, 2022, and could not have been happier with the band. The first thi...
ng nearly every person said that we spoke with after our wedding was how awesome the band was and we couldn’t agree more. They were professional, fun, and most important of all sounded amazing. Alena was great to work with leading up to the wedding to make sure the schedule was exactly what we intended and communicated very well throughout the process. The song list was very expansive and we were able to choose so many songs that we wanted to have played. The band lead for the night (I think his name was James) made sure to direct the night (first dance, father/daughter, blessings, dinner, etc.) perfectly. We can’t thank the Crasherz enough for how they contributed to our wedding and would recommend them to anyone who asks us.
If you’re trying to party, hire the Crasherz!!! They leaned into our requests for funky Motown hits and jammed it all out. Couldn’t have asked for a better dance party
Where do I begin with The Crasherz. They stepped up months before our wedding when our original band bailed on us. And I am so glad it worked out this way because they rocked the h...
ouse! The band manager put my mind at ease each step of the planning along with the day of the wedding. We had them sing our first dance song and it was the best decision. I will recommend this amazing group over and over again.
The CrasherZ Band played at our corporate Christmas party on December 4, 2021. They were fantastic to work with from the start (contract process) all the way to the end. They arriv...
ed on time, dressed professionally for the event and kept the dance floor packed for 3 hours straight! They played a wide range of music genres that kept people in their 20s and 70s on the floor. A few of the musicians came off the stage onto the dance floor a few times too which was extra special. Will book them again in a minute!

If you want the best, then CRASHERZ are the band for you. From the onset in terms of professionalism, transparency, communication, reliability, and flexibility, they get it and th...
ey live it. As performers and artists, they are off the charts. Alena and Sean, along with the rest of the band, rocks out. They have an incredible play list, they tailor their songs to meet your needs, they will play whatever you want, and when they do, they play it well. They get the party started and it goes all out until the end. Finally, they are good people. They care. The CRASHERZ deliver. Lori + Tom
Craherz was an amazing band! I hired them after evaluating 7 possible bands. Their song selection was perfect, the energy kept the night fun for everyone and they were extremely co...

Honestly I wish every vendor I worked with could have been as attentive, caring, and professional as Alena! She made me feel so comfortable and supported and I totally trusted that...
she would do everything to make sure our day went off perfectly. She is also so friendly and helpful in all wedding aspects that I reached out to her for so many non music related wedding questions. Sean and her had incredible voices, got the party going, and fit right into our wedding as if they were part of our friends! We couldn't recommend them highly enough!
The CrasherZ did an absolutely phenomenal job entertaining for my brother and sister-in-law's wedding this past weekend. Alena was super personable and easy to work with. I sent he...
r a personalized playlist the week of the wedding for any special traditional Italian song requests and fan favorites for our guests. She was quick to respond. She also did an amazing job announcing the wedding party and really set the tone for the evening. The CrasherZ also made my brother & sister-in-law's live first dance performance memorable. The whole band kept all our 300+ guests moving from beginning til end. Would definitely recommend the CrasherZ to other friends and family.
Back in June 2019 we hired The CrasherZ for my mom and dads anniversary party. To say that we had a great night is an understatement. The talent the band possesses is seriously ama...
zing. They have the BEST selection of songs, the singers were beyond talented and the way they had our guests dancing and participating in the evening was magical. The night was perfect and we couldn't have had a better band! Sean and Alena were so easy to work with too. Very accommodating in every way. Don't hesitate in hiring The CrasherZ for your next party!
If we could have a party every year, we would! The CrasherZ brought such talent and energy to our event!! Everyone danced all night and kept saying how they sounded like the radio....
They worked with us on all of the formalities and Mc'd the night, too! They truly made our wedding an AMAZING experience.
The CrasherZ told us their motto is "We'll keep it classy but we came to party"! We laughed, but how they proved it to be oh so true! The band members, the song choices, their MC...

WHAT A PARTY with CrasherZ! Sean Z was communicative and so easy to work with before the big day. No stress whatsoever. They played all the songs we asked for and also gave great r...
ecommendations. We had specific versions of a few songs for our special dances and they made it happen better than we could have ever expected. They were able to get the party going and get everyone on the dance floor. We still have friends and family telling us how much fun they had all due to the live music!
Can you say WOW. Crasher Z Band is amazing. They understand their clients and take things to the next level. Alena and Sean are pure entertainers. If you are looking for a band...
with great energy that can relate to all age groups this is it. From Weddings to Corporate they will not disappoint. Crasher Z Band flows right into another song while keeping the beat and energy level 100%. Im so impressed with them, now its your turn. Call Crasher Z Band for your next event!!!
We hired CrasherZBand for our daughters wedding in the midst of the pandemic and lockdowns with wedding plans being cancelled and changed. We were scattered to say the least and s...
crambling to put something together. Alena could not have been more helpful and accommodating as our picture of this “ new wedding “ evolved. They played beautiful instrumental music during dinner and then after dinner... we were totally blown away. They were absolutely amazing and had everyone out on the dance floor all night. The vocal talents and the instruments were beyond anything we were expecting. We even asked for a song that’s not in their repertoire and they said they’d “ wing it.” They nailed it. Their energy and talent absolutely made the night. It was magical. I can not recommend them more highly.
